Turn Hunger into Hope with Your Own Two Hands

HELP CHILDREN LIKE EMMANUEL SURVIVE AND THRIVE. At least 6,200 children die each day as a result of malnutrition and hunger-related diseases.1

How do we get food where it’s needed most? And how can food assistance help people build stronger communities? Feed My Starving Children has a hunger solution that answers both these questions.

TURN HUNGER TO HOPE

W E P A R T N E R W I T H C O M M U N I T Y - B U I L D E R SWe give our food to hundreds of missions and humanitarian organizations around the world—organizations that know how to get things done in challenging conditions. Working in their own cultures, our partners use the meals to operate schools, orphanages, hospitals, ministries and feeding programs. Development work that not only feeds people for today, but transforms the very futures of the children, families, communities and nations they serve.

W E F E E D T H E S P I R I T S O F V O L U N T E E R SEach year, volunteers from families, churches, businesses and civic groups hand-pack meals at one of our permanent sites or MobilePack™ events around the U.S. Working as teams in two-hour shifts, volunteers fill and seal bags of food, enjoying a fun atmosphere and the satisfaction of making a measurable impact on hunger.

Volunteers and other donors pay for 100% of FMSC meals. We receive no government aid. With each meal costing less than a quarter, donations of any amount make a big difference.

HOW YOU CAN HELPWe work in Christ’s name and people of all faiths are welcome to volunteer, donate, and receive our meals.

G I V EGo to fmsc.org/Donate to donate.

V O L U N T E E RRegister at one of our sites or a MobilePack event and contribute toward the meals you pack. Sign up at fmsc.org/Volunteer.

SUPPORT A MODEL THAT WORKSFeed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian non-profit committed to feeding God’s children, hungry in body and spirit. The approach is simple: volunteers hand-pack meals specially formulated for malnourished children, and we send them to partners building more-successful communities around the world. Our food has reached more than 70 countries in our history.

T H E P R I C E O F A M E A LEach meal costs less than a quarter to make and FMSC devotes more than 90% of total donations directly to feeding kids.

N U T R I T I O U S F O O D F O R A N Y C U LT U R EFounded in 1987, we are the original and largest supplier of nutritionally complete, packaged dry meals for the world’s hungry.

Food scientists developed our all-vegetarian MannaPack™ Rice meals to quickly reverse and prevent malnutrition. A power-packed formula of 20 vitamins and minerals—added to dried vegetables, soy protein, and rice—provides complete nutrition for a child to grow and thrive.

We also offer two groundbreaking new formulas: MannaPack Potato-D, the relief world’s only food to manage diarrhea, a leading killer worldwide; and MannaPack Potato-W, a weaning formula that meets World Health Organization guidelines for toddlers at the high-risk age of 7-12 months.

*On the recommendation of our auditors, this ratio includes the value of volunteer labor.

“The GENEROUS will themselves

be blessed, for they SHARE their food with the poor.” – Proverbs 22:9
